"Starbucks isn't your average espresso bar or even coffee shop. The world famous chain not only has espresso and drip coffee, but dozens of tea, chocolate, and creamy creations for all ages and tastes. Plus, with the ability to customize any drink, there are literally hundreds of drink variations to choose from. We tasted and ranked 29 popular Starbucks hot drinks that run the gamut of flavors and bases. The worst hot drink from Starbucks isn't necessarily bad, it's just basic."
"Starbuck's Caffe Americano - made by adding hot water to a double shot of espresso - is perhaps the most coffee-forward hot drink you can order. A lack of milk or sweetener really brings the flavor of the espresso beans to the forefront. Made to order, the Americano is arguably fresher than drip coffee that's brewed in larger batches. On the downside, Americanos have less caffeine than a drip cup of coffee of the same size."
Starbucks offers espresso, drip coffee, dozens of tea, chocolate, and creamy creations, and hundreds of customizable drink variations. The hot drinks cover a wide range of flavors and bases, from espresso-forward orders to milk- and chocolate-based specialties. The Caffe Americano is prepared by adding hot water to a double shot of espresso, emphasizing the espresso beans' flavor due to absence of milk or sweetener. Made-to-order Americanos can seem fresher than batch-brewed drip coffee, but they typically contain less caffeine than an equal-size drip cup and can taste diluted when the water-to-espresso ratio is too high. Customer reactions vary between calling Americanos watered-down and praising their pure coffee taste.
